Transient Artisan Ales

 

I got this via NBS BIF 14 from Ovaltine who sent me a truckload of excellent beer.
This pours hazy but not like a NEIPA, it’s distinct in the haziness, like the oats are contributing.
The aroma is wonderful, pure IPA citrus and crisp hops and dark fruit. Really nice.
The taste followed, this is a very tasty beer. I just wanted to keep drinking well after the glass was empty.
The feel is where this separates itself from the pack. I didn’t think I would like oats in an IPA but the feel is so creamy that it begged to be quaffed. Very interesting in the good way!

Pours a hazy, approaching turbid, pineapple color with a dense, creamy white head that clings to the glass on its journey south. Nose is tropical citrus, primarily pineapple, mango, and passion fruit, and a nice sweetness from the oats.

The taste is chock full of pineapple, mango, and passion fruit, but the star is the creamy oat flavor, which lends a wonderful creamy feel to this delicious beer. Excellent stuff by Transient, IMHO.

 

 

Pours a hazy gold with a finger of white froth that dissipates leaving sudsy lacing. Smell is citrus, bitter hop, some floral qualities. Taste follows suit to a tee. Feel is where this stands out, I guess because of the oats. Drinks almost like a stout it’s so thick and creamy. I enjoyed it, but it is middle of the road.
